kits, variants, and sku's bug??

[compunerdy]

When I add a item with variants to a kit it uses the default sku and not the variant modified sku. Not sure if this is just a display issue or not yet. This will cause a lot of problems with sales reporting and transfering to quickbooks etc though if its not.

This did not get addressed for 7.0.4?

I would understand if this was a feature request but it was a bug introduced with 7.0.3

[compunerdy]

Is this ever going to be addressed?

It was working in 7.0.2 and was broken in 7.0.3 and was ignored for 7.0.4 any hopes for 7.0.5? The bug has not been updated in months.

I've found a quick one-line workaround for it that might help until the bug is properly fixed, it doesn't change the issue just fixes the display on the admin order screen which is to simply copy the Sku from the variant (if it is defined) to the main order item sku before displaying it. At least I can now see what the sku should be when viewing the order You would need to do something similar for the shipments display too.

In Admin/ViewOrder.aspx.cs line 287 change this:

Code: Select all

        OrderItemCollection itemList = new OrderItemCollection();
        foreach (OrderItem item in _Order.Items)
        {
            switch (item.OrderItemType)
            {
                case OrderItemType.Tax:
                case OrderItemType.GiftCertificatePayment:
                    break;
                default:
                    itemList.Add(item);
                    break;
            }
        }

And add this one line:

Code: Select all

        OrderItemCollection itemList = new OrderItemCollection();
        foreach (OrderItem item in _Order.Items)
        {
            switch (item.OrderItemType)
            {
                case OrderItemType.Tax:
                case OrderItemType.GiftCertificatePayment:
                    break;
                default:
                    if (item.ProductVariant != null) item.Sku = item.ProductVariant.Sku; // Work around for bug #8256
                    itemList.Add(item);
                    break;
            }
        }

I dont have a problem with how it is displayed as much as what happens when I transfer my orders into quickbooks and I am recording sales for the wrong items.

The bug has been updated Thanks Katie..hopefully it will get fixed in the next release.

Can anyone let me know if this has been addressed? I can't seem to access the link nor set up an account with bugtrack.

[Logan Rhodehamel]

The problem was resolved in AC 7.0.5. We switched to a new bug tracking system so the link above is no longer valid.

[compunerdy]

Is there a new bug system which we can see? It was nice to be able to search and see what was being addressed before submitting bugs, etc..

[michaewa]

I don't suppose there would be any way to get the code that fixed that bug short of upgrading to 7.0.5? That isn't a very realistic option for me right now, but the bug is causing problems. I'm comfortable making the updates if anyone could point me to the files / functions that need to be tweaked...

Thanks!
